I've been burning my bridges for too many years
Drowning the sorrow of too many tears
Women and whiskey are my only friends
One gives me strength and one just pretendsI've been waiting my whole life
For things to work out right
But those lonely days turn into lonely nights
Yes, they doI've heard all the wisdom of prophets and seers
It don't soothe my passion and it don't ease my fears
Burned by love, blinded by snow
Bad luck and trouble are with me wherever I goI've been waiting my whole life
For things to work out right
But those lonely days turn into lonely nightsLonely days, lonely nights
Lonely days, lonely nightsLonely days, lonely nights
Someday babe, it's gonna be alright
Lonely days, lonely nights
Someday babe, it's gonna be alright for me, for meLonely days, lonely nights
Someday babe, it's gonna be alright
Lonely days, lonely nights
Someday babe, it's gonna be alrightLonely days, lonely nights
Someday babe, it's gonna be alright
Lonely days, lonely nights
Someday babe, it's gonna be alrightLonely days, lonely nights
Someday babe, it's gonna be alright
Lonely days, lonely nights
Someday babe, it's gonna be alrightLonely days, lonely nights
Someday babe, it's gonna be alright
Lonely days, lonely nights
Someday babe, it's gonna be alright
